In light of accelerating enrollment decline and the associated reduction of funding, the Board of Education says more substantial action is needed to allow BVSD to use resources more efficiently and maintain the high-quality learning experiences students currently receive. 

Before developing specific options, BVSD will share information and collect feedback from BVSD stakeholders. Initial meetings with principals and teachers are underway. Regional community meetings will be planned for March through May, with a summary of feedback presented to the Board in June. Staff will develop school adjustment options over the summer and present those to the Board in August. Final Board action on the proposed options is planned for October, with the possibility of changes being put in place for the 2027-28 school year. 

The Boulder Valley School District is expecting a staffing shortage tomorrow, related to the planned National Shutdown protest. Organizers are encouraging people to refrain from going to work, school or shopping.

Only a couple weeks into the new semester, Boulder Valley School District students were already immersed in the challenges we face due to climate change and considering how they might take action.

During a special workshop, organized like a conference at Platt Middle School, groups of students from Platt, Centaurus and Fairview high schools moved from session to session over the course of a Thursday morning, learning about everything from climate-related careers and art to climate justice to the legislative process and how they can participate, by testifying.
